Form Is Correct, Essence - Mockery
Кalashnikova Maxim 01.02.2010

I will tell you at once: there's a lot of correct things in Chubays's speech. About intolerable dullness of tax and customs policies of the three-coloured state. That there's there are the same conditions for bringing in into the Russian Federation of top-level expert and stupid Asian guestarbeiter. Chubays even told about predominating role of the state at placing of targets before innovative community, about its role in technoparks and technopolises. He uttered seditious for liberals thought: say, successful modernisation doesn't have presence of liberal democracy as indispensable condition.
Yes, everything is true. But nothing new. Either we and other people for already ten years have been talking the same and we do it more distinctly and firmer. Only from Chubays's lips it sounds almost floutingly. >>

To the Conclusions of Some Western Experts on Recipes of Exit from Great Recession of Our Days
Kalashnikov Maxim 20.01.2010

In the end of 2009 the Nobel prize winner for economy Edmund Phelps (the director of the Center of studying of capitalism at the Colombian university) offered his recipe of struggle against Megacrisis. He recommended the governments (that is the states) to promote creation of banks which would specialize on financing of innovative private enterprises. Phelps is convinced that thus is possible to repeat boisterous technological development of XIX century. "That is checked up method of achievement of prosperity". That is, it is offered to intersect socialism with liberalism. Slipping out of the Russians from a deadly loop - only in resolute break, in creation of new social order with new civilisation. However, whether such break will take place in barbarically-corrupted, raw Russian Federation with rotten "elite" hostile to creativity? >>

Putin Reanimated Gorbachev's Antialcoholic Decree
17.01.2010

By 2020 the state expects to finish with traditions of the Russian hard drinking, to lower more than twice consumption of alcoholic production in the country and to liquidate completely illegal alcoholic market. The corresponding concept was confirmed by Prime Minister Vladimir Putin. It painfully reminds Gorbachev's "decree"... While they still argue with Lenin who said that history develops on a spiral. However, specifying Lenin, it is necessary to say that the Russian history develops on a coil spiral in a hootch still... >>

Presidium of the Russian Academy of Sciences vs Maxim Kalashnikov and Co: Obstruction or Form-Factor?
Kalashnikov Maxim 14.01.2010

So, on January, 20th at 2.00 p.m. the initiative group of innovators of Maxim Kalashnikov should hold a meeting with academicians in presidium of the Russian Academy of Sciences. All these - consequences of reaction of president D.Medvedev on my reference on September, 15th. The academy of sciences should pronounce a judgment about our offers: on creation of elements of National innovative system and on a building of pilot futurepolis: a city of farmstead type, a clot of diversified innovations - technical, social and humanitarian. What will be this meeting like? Let's try to foresee some moments.

Каrelia Is Freezing, As It's Known, It's More to the North, Than Pikalevo
28.12.2009

Deputies of Legislative Assembly of Karelia refused to support reference addressed to the prime minister of the country V.Putin by majority of votes, it should have been offered there to the federal centre to limit rise in prices for fuel by directive. However the deputy from association "Fair Russia" G.Fandeev began to insist on revoting on the question. He was supported by deputy A.Stepanov (Communist Party of the Russian Federation) which intimidated colleagues saying that the fact of inattention to scandalous problems of citizens could lead to unpredictable consequences, like memorable massacre in Kondopoga or overlapping of streets by rebelled workers of Pikalevo in Leningrad region.

Russia Starves
Delyagin Michael 02.11.2009

According to Rosstat, average daily consumption of calories by the average inhabitant of our country after long growth in 2008 decreased a little - possibly because of crisis. Decrease is insignificant: only 0,5%. It is much more important that average consumption of calories by the inhabitant of our country (2564 cal in 2007 and 2550 cals- in 2008) remains, no matter how amazing it seems, is below medical norm. We have got used to that a living wage of the Russian, despite of other structure (more meat and fish, less - bread, vegetables and potato) on its caloric content is quite comparable with a ration of the German prisoner in the Soviet camps in autumn, 1941. However, the concept of "living wage" means not even poverty but poverty with which simple personal survival is even incompatible; therefore the data on the Russian average level makes deep impression. >>

Мichael Delyagin: Significant Part of the Russian Business Doesn't See Prospects of Work in Russia
20.10.2009

The Russian economy will begin fast reanimation from III quarter of 2009 due to replenishment of stocks which failed in previous half a year and private consumption supported by growth of social expenses. Restoration of the Russian economy, most likely, will take place under scenario "boom and recession", is stated in a strategy of "Renaissance Capital" published by the Russian mass-media. After deep recession of 2009 average rate of increase in gross national product in 2010-2012 will exceed 6%. But after the growth in 2010, peak in 2011 and slowing down in 2012, economy will be reduced in 2013... >>

Мichael Delyagin: "SouvenirDemocracy" - It's Total Tuning Minus Electrification of All Country
Аnna Ivanova 30.08.2009

It was at the end of 90s when conversations about guzzling of "the Soviet inheritance" threatening by scale technogenic accidents appeared for the first time. Then economists specified inevitability of technogenic accidents in housing and communal services in 2000-2003. Official propagandists do not get tired till now to laugh at this forecast though it proved true: in winter of 2002/2003 years the quantity of switching-off of heat in our country jumped up approximately 20 times. It was then when Ministry of Emergency Measures sent pig-iron radiators of central heating to Sakhalin and ten thousand Russians met New Year at street temperature. >>

Мichael Delyagin: The Most Destructive for the Russian Economy Measures Was Fulfilled under the Banner of Interests of Foreign Investors
Аnna Ivanova 26.08.2009

During celebration of Independence Day of Ukraine president Victor Jushchenko de facto represented his pre-election presidential program - people had to listen to it and accept for action. In particular, in economic block of his program V.Jushchenko promised "assistance to external and domestic investments, especially in context of Euro-2012. It is a question of tens billion dollars of investments, we should generate climate for them through professional power system". So, the question of external investments we decided to discuss with director of Institute of Problems of Globalization, Doctor of Science Michael Delyagin. The most awful and destructive measures for the Russian national economy - like partition of the RAO "Unified Energy System of Russia" under the pretext of electric power industry reform - were carried out under the banner of interests of foreign investors. Now collapse of this policy is being disguised using all methods including statistical ones. >>

Мichael Delyagin: What Should Workers Demand?
Аnna Ivanova 25.08.2009

About Common Requirements of Labour Collectives during Strikes and Mass Actions
20.08.2009

A meeting on a theme of development of uniform requirements of labour collectives during strikes and mass actions for the nearest period takes place today in Institute of Problems of Globalization. The essence of the problem is that today even in case of sharp, extreme forms of protest such as hunger-strike or continuing strike requirements which collectives put forward have situational character, are often inconsistent that facilitates struggle against them to the owners of enterprises and allows the state, acting on the part of the owner, not to accept joint steps, including of the legislative character, improving position of hired workers. >>

Diagnosis: Decay and Parasitism
Victor Tyulkin 16.08.2009

Management of Federal Migration Service (FMS) of the Russian Federation pleased Russians with news that shortly it would take measures for sharp acceleration of registration of foreign passports and other documents. For this purpose FMS plans to organize paid services to citizens for accelerated registration of passports. Thus the heads of FMS prove their initiative by desire to liquidate semilegal corrupted market of companies-intermediaries which turnover is being estimated in the amount of not less than 1 billion dollars a year (some experts suppose that the volume is 5 billion). Thus FMS covers its activity by references to the fact that such practice exists in many civilized states. >>

Rouble Ceased Strengthening
01.08.2009

Insignificant correction downwards of oil prices and share markets in the second half of the day on Tuesday appeared enough for a tendency turn in the currency market - dollar restored its position in relation to euro and rouble weakened in relation to both basic currencies. On the Moscow Interbank Stock Exchange dual - currency basket showed growth by 30,42 copecks up to 36,88 rbl. Dollar became stronger for a day by 4,7 copecks up to 30,76 rbl., euro - by 5,38 copecks up to 43,74 rbl. We will remind that yesterday dual - currency basket fell in price by 22,6 copecks up to 36,57 rbl., it had to gain only 17 copecks to June's minimum. Two weeks ago, on July, 13^th the basket cost 38,63 rbl. Restoration of oil quotations after a collapse up to $60 led to rouble strengthening last days.

Russia Started Eating Up Money for "Rainy Day"
Delyagin Michael 21.07.2009

Strained exaltations that the Russian state still has something to be spent - reliable tool of derivation of public attention from variety of inconvenient questions first of all connected with efficiency of the state policy. Really: having devaluated rouble almost by one third, the state simultaneously managed to lose almost a quarter of billion dollars of the international reserves - money which could be spent (certainly, having such a desire) on construction of the second Russia - better and more beautiful than today's one. >>

Inflation Fades - together with Economy
Delyagin Michael 14.07.2009

Inflation comes to naught: from April 0,7% it decreased to May 0.6%, in first half of June it made 0.3% that is twice below of the same parameter of last year. Thus, absence of demand "knocked down" arbitrariness of monopolies in all spheres but for natural monopolies. Absence of the demand, in its turn, is caused by unprecedentedly rigid financial policy of the state. For January-April money supply for the first time from before default 1998 didn't grow, it even reduced - by record 8,6% (in 1998 reduction made only 0,4%)!
Such policy destroys economy much more effectively, than inflation. >>

Мichael Delyagin: Russians Are ready to Welcome the Most Cynical Crimes against Power Hostile to Them
Аnna Ivanova 13.07.2009

Already in the beginning of 2004 I carried out relatively small (and, certainly, not representative) interrogation of several tens relatively successful inhabitants from several large Russian cities which I used to visit what they think justice is. I was shocked by full disbelief in possibility of any positive justice. People did not trust either in modernization, or in becoming rich working fair, or in notorious "rising from knees". Roughly speaking, the fullest reflecting their mood illustration of concept "justice" already then, more than five years ago, was "a number of lanterns along highway and official hanging on each". It is a terrible situation - but for the past years titanic efforts of a ruling kleptocracy made it even more aggravated. >>

Pseudo Innovations As the Threat to the National Security of Russia
Oleg Sergeev 21.06.2009

Immediacy criterion of introduction imposed by mobilisation economy of empiric, "materialist - amateur", academician Trofim Lysenko and his pseudo-innovation methods of increase of fields productivity in short terms allowed to gain "victory" over scientist -geneticist, "idealist" Nikolay Vavilov. Destruction of agrotechnologies and permanent crisis of agriculture in the USSR and new Russia was a result of it.Painfully familiar Lysenko's style is seen in pseudo innovation (fast and costless achievement of unique technical characteristics of sea rockets) of the Moscow Institute of Heat Processing Engineering which won competition connected with the project "Bulava" at the State Rocket Center named after Makeev - the developer of technological standard in this field. >>

"Effective Managers" Refuse from Adopted Children?
Delyagin Michael 04.06.2009

Social and economic crisis developing in our country, despite of soothing statements of official propagation not simply worsens position of children but also generates new, unprecedented even in the recent past tragedies.
In particular, active workers of some public organizations studying problems of family and childhood paid attention to not individual refusals of representatives of "middle class" of earlier adopted children developing into dreadful, monstrous tendency.The state statistics doesn't reflect this process, as profile departments categorically do not want the national account even of adoption process. However appearance of such phenomenon as refusal of earlier adopted child is indicative of deep moral crash of the Russian society. >>
